SC orders not to summon Hashmi in Asghar Khan case

ISLAMABAD - The Supreme Court on Friday ordered not to summon Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) leader Javed Hashmi again in a case pertaining to the implementation on court orders in Asghar Khan case.

During the hearing, Hashmi told the Bench that his case had been cleared after the court had acquitted him seven year back from the charges.

The CJP remarked that the court had only sought implementation report from Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) and did not summon him.

Hashmi said that he had faced five year detention in custody of National Accountability Bureau (NAB), thus should not be summoned in this case. Chief Justice Saqib Nisar observed that the court had ordered to end the case against Hashmi if charges did not establish against him.
